  • Gorillamart
    "We sell mainly magazines, zines, and comics that are relevant to graffiti and streetart. In general we purchase them at 50% to 60% off the cover price. We buy up front, not on consignment. This eliminates the need for returns, and you don't have to wait to get paid until we know how many copies sold."
